During the unsuccessful negotiations in the White House on February 28, Vladimir Zelensky was most concerned about the influence of Russian misinformation on Donald Trump and his team.
This is stated in the publication of Time with reference to interview with the President of Ukraine.
Trump had a telephone conversation with Putin, who told the President of the United States that thousands of Ukrainian military in Kursk were surrounded by Russian troops.
“It was a lie,” Zelensky said, but Trump continued to strengthen her, writes journalist Simon Shuster.
The US officials began to believe Putin on the word, even when their own intelligence data contradicted it, the journalist added.
“I believe that Russia has been able to influence some people from the White House team through information. Their signal to the Americans was that Ukrainians did not want to stop the war and have to do something to force them, ”Zelensky said.
Ukrainians consider the United States an ally, Zelensky said.
“But at that moment (during the White House negotiations) there was a feeling that we were not allies or not hold an ally position. In that conversation, I defended the dignity of Ukraine, ”the President added.
Zelensky noted that Trump agreed to some of Russia’s concessions without getting anything in return. He removed Ukraine for joining NATO and even suggested that the Russian Federation could return to the G7 – the club of the richest democracies in the world. This approach stops Putin’s isolation.
“It’s a big compromise. Imagine the release of Hitler from political isolation, ”Zelensky said.
The President of Ukraine hopes that Trump will understand that Putin is weaker than seems to be trusted. According to Zelensky, the President of the United States and his team would not have lost their loss of Ukraine.
“They have their own ambitions. They see their role in history ”not only as powerful leaders, but also as those who can achieve a decent end of war. “That’s why I do not believe in these apocalyptic scenarios,” he said.
The Saudi Arabia has a meeting of delegations of Ukraine and the United States, which discuss the technical moments of the ceasefire regime, according to the evening address of President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky.
Recall that in Riyadh Ukrainian and American delegations held the first round of negotiations.
The United States plans to reach a truce in infrastructure, then in the Black Sea, to exchange prisoners, and then want a ceasefire on the entire front line in Ukraine. Moreover, Trump believes that the armistice in infrastructure blows.
